Love your "January display" -- the gnome, boots and red candle holders all go together so well!
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra....feels good to switch things up!
Delete6 special candles! I love the jug (or pitcher?) that the Clivia is in, I would just display that as is, although it does look good with it's new resident! We are de decorating this weekend so I will be sorting things out next week. I was thinking that I need to find something for valentines, so I might take a leaf from you and look out some red candles! xx
ReplyDeleteAlready thinking of Valentines!!
DeleteThat jug has been in the basement for ages....decided to put it to use!
Not sure if the Clivia will survive....time will tell!
You have very happy plants. I bought a small pot of rosemary and cilantro at Trader's Joe and will be looking for some bigger pots to transplant in. Since I made the fused rosemary salt and olive oil for Christmas, I wanted to have my own rosemary.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to leave up my two favorite Nativity scenes up till Easter!
Love buying fresh potted herbs...unfortunately, due to the cold weather, our choices are limited
DeleteI still have Christmas decoration up and I want them down! If I were very rich I would hire someone to do it.
ReplyDeleteEnlist your son,daughter and hubby!
DeleteThey also enjoyed the decorations....no?
Everything looks nice and fresh! The little rose I brought in for the winter has a bloom!
ReplyDeleteLet's see a pic of that!
DeleteHave you put things away yet, young lady?
I love those little boots on your table. The bitter cold has vanished (for now) and a snow storm is moving in tomorrow. We are heading out to visit the grandkids this morning so we can stay home all day tomorrow. I'll have to decided what to do for my weekend cooking.
ReplyDeleteMy houseplants need a bit of attention too ... the Christmas cactus have all finished blooming.
Enjoy the weekend ... get ready to watch Downtown Abbey on Sunday :)
I have a red pair too! Gifts from my lovely daughters♥️
DeleteHave fun with the grand kids...
Hope the snow stays away....
Yes....yes....yes!
DeleteDowntown on Sunday!
Love the little gnome :)
ReplyDeleteMe too♥️
Deletebeautifu blossoms, I was given an orchid and it never bloomed, ever, I do have luck with violets, though, your dinner sounds wonderful, quite like what we had the other day by coincidence, lol, a Happy New Year to you and family, its kind of sad to see Christmas gone so fast isn't it,
ReplyDeleteI have had several orchids....never rebloomed for me....
DeleteChristmas is already a blur!
Oh it's so cold. I'm shivering and my fingers and toes are frosty. Ha! It's nice to see flowering plants inside in the winter. I'm enjoying my cream poinsettia and my now flowering red variegated Amaryllis. But, it's SO cold outside. The tree is still up and the lights brighten the dark cold evenings. I don't mind. I may take the decorations off and just leave the lights and crocheted snowflakes. May….
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to keep the lights up...
DeleteWe have year round lights in our back yard here...keeps things cheery!
You do whatever you want, Pam!
